All I do with the search domains parameter in Network Manager is add
the word.  Likewise if setting the dnsdomain name (there's man page for
that command).  If the search domain was "example.com" that's exactly
what I'd type.

So just type in:  internal

If I were configuring my DHCP server to hand it out to clients, that
would be the following in the dhcpd.conf file:

  option domain-name  "internal.";

It's going by proper standards that a domain name ends with a dot.
